Motion for the Establishment of a Peacekeeping Mission in Istkalen
-
First of all, allow me to say that Czech Slavia fully supports a peaceful resolution of all issues prevalent in Istkalen and peaceful and harmonious transition of power back to the people of Istkalen. As the involvement of the Peacekeepers is requested by the Republic of Istkalen and the Joint Transitional Authority for Istkalen I will vote for this motion.
However similarly to the Deputy Speaker Tusk and Councillor Gragner I consider an amendment to the motion necessary. I think the two affected actors, the Republic of Istkalen and the J-TAI, also to have a major voice about the presence of the peacekeepers. I would not support any action that could become an occupation against the wishes of the people of Istkalen or that would be preventing a peaceful and harmonious transition of power.
For that reason I propose the following amendment.
SECTION I
XI. The peacekeeping mission must be withdrawn at the request of the Republic of Istkalen or the Joint Transitional Authority for Istkalen
Václav Kohout
Councillor for Czech Slavia -
I think your proposal is also understandable, Councillor Kohout, so would you rather support a combination of your amendment and my amendment? I think it would be pretty understandable to mix both and convert them into one, instead of having to vote on 2 different amendments.
Donald Tusk
Deputy Speaker and Councillor for Spain -
I give my permission to mend the two proposed amendments into one, as long as the text of amendment I proposed doesn't change and the meaning of the amendment proposed to you doesn't change either.
Václav Kohout
Councillor for Czech Slavia -
I then request the Speaker to take into consideration a single amendment:
SECTION I
IX. The peacekeeping mission may only be withdrawn by supermajority vote of the European Council, if the European Commission, after a debate and vote, believes their mission is accomplished; or at the request of the Republic of Istkalen or the Joint Transitional Authority for Istkalen.
Donald Tusk
Deputy Speaker and Councillor for Spain -
I approve this amendment. We are working together for a better union.
Emma Granger,
Councillor for Montenbourg -
I again request that this motion move into voting.
Iras Tilkanas
Councillor for the Republic of Istkalen -
Debate is now over. It is time to vote on amendments. There is ONE amendment, which was proposed by myself, Cllr. Tusk and integrating the proposed amendment proposed by Cllr. Kohout. The amendment is thus:
Amendment I - Proposed by Cllr. Tusk, co-authored by Cllr. Kohout
SECTION I
IX. The peacekeeping mission may only be withdrawn by supermajority vote of the European Council, if the European Commission, after a debate and vote, believes their mission is accomplished; or at the request of the Republic of Istkalen or the Joint Transitional Authority for Istkalen.
Voting on amendments will commence NOW and will last until 12:09 GMT on September 30th, 2021.
I vote FOR the amendment.
